Sledsel Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I'd say you got a home run with this one. Good job. Hmmm... now what to do with the headlights? They are in need of something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I like the color combination on this. These are usually built with the bright colors that MoPars were known for at the time. This has a cleaner more modern look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Michelle realizes I have been inspired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Good job with the paint. I always have trouble when using white. The color combo looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
